What is Spider-Man: Noir about?
Spider-Man: Noir is a live-action series coming to Prime Video. The series reimagines the Spider-Man mythos in a Depression-era New York.

The show exists in its own universe, separate from Peter Parker’s traditional narrative.
Here is the official description from Amazon:
Spider-Noir is a live-action series based on the Marvel comic Spider-Man Noir. Spider-Noir tells the story of an aging and down on his luck private investigator (Cage) in 1930s New York, who is forced to grapple with his past life as the city’s one and only superhero.
